“Far From Yesterday” by Amy Stroup featured on PLL Season 4×3 “Cat’s Cradle”
Whenever the girls get together and catch up, there’s always a lot of ground to cover. That’s why a song entitled “Far From Yesterday” is eerily fitting. Amy Stroup’s vocals are beautiful and the lyrics totally capture that feeling of time flying by and not being able to do anything to stop it or the bad things that are happening around you. Check it out below.
“The Power” by District 78 feat. Cheesa featured on SYTYCD 10×15 “Top 8 Perform”
So You Think You Can Dance usually has pretty spot on selections for their music curating. Jasmine & tWitch’s hip hop dance for the Top 8 night was no different. The remix of “The Power” perfectly hit on the themes they were trying to touch on and the story they were trying to tell with respect to superheroes amongst us. Jasmine, usually reserved, really got a chance to get outside her shell and shine and show us her power. You go, girl.
“Open Your Eyes” by Andrew Belle featured on Degrassi 13×7 “Honey”
We had a major loss during this episode. At the end of “Honey” Adam doesn’t make it through his operation. Death is always tragic and Andrew Belle’s haunting song “Open Your Eyes” will stay with you long after the scene ends. RIP Adam Torres.
“When It’s Raining” by Stephanie Day on The Vineyard
Music supervision for reality television is always difficult. The drama happening on screen is so intense (usually) that you don’t want to distract from what’s happening, but music always helps underscore so it’s a delicate balance one needs to strike. The Vineyards has been doing a particularly good job with that this season. Exhibit A: Stephanie Day’s “When It’s Raining” perfectly underscored Daniel’s fraught conversation with Emily about Jon and Jackie. Enjoy!
